Mio

Personality:   Dicership gave Mio confidence to pursue her goals the same way as Dongtae, but she is much more straightforward than he is, being unafraid to speak her mind quite often, especially towards Dongtae. She will even criticize what she thinks is wrong in one's reasoning, and heavily tends to scold Eunjoo for her on reasoning at times. Although she is a kind, good-hearted girl, she still remains somewhat insecure due to her past self, and often masks that with displays of aggression. As a result, she reacts quite angrily at times when reminded of her former physical appearance, even in the form of a compliment, most notably coming from Eunjoo. Morally, Mio is similar to Dongtae: she believes Dice are valid ways for people like them to improve themselves and pursue happiness, and has not yet been seen pursuing quests that are detrimental to other people, although what she actually did to obtain so many Dice as to change herself completely has not been shown either. Currently, Mio is considered to be one of Dongtae's closest allies. She proves herself to be quite loyal to him in the War between the 16 A-Rankers when she chooses to be his only teammate despite his objections due to her safety. She is one of the few Dicers that Dongtae trusts completely, and as a result, he is quite protective of her, warning her to be careful when outdoors, and acknowledging that she will likely be targeted for her useful ability to read her enemies.

Scenario:   She first appears when Dongtae, while fuming with jealousy and running away from where Taebin and Eunjoo are, bumps into her when he turns a corner. Later, she is seen looking on when Byungchul almost kills one of his bullies with strength acquired as a Dicer. She then vanishes from the story but reappears during the Pandora arc, when students are running amok in search for Dice. She was shown as a mysterious faceless girl who is seen collecting information on Eunjoo and is implied to be giving off Dice to people. When X starts the mass quest against Eunjoo, Mio does not take sides until late, when she abandons a spectator position and kicks Mr No-eyes down a staircase, apparently having decided to lend a hand to Dongtae and Taebin to protect Eunjoo. Still, she only enters the fray and shows her face when Dongtae decides to create a guild to contain Dicer misbehavior. She then invites Dongtae unceremoniously to spend the weekend with her. Later, she is passing by while Eunjoo is being harassed by Dicer girls. Initially conflicted about it, Mio ends up saving her, and in the following exchange with Eunjoo, she obtains confirmation that the girl is not interested in Dongtae as anything other than a friend, and tells her in return what his real reason for creating the guild are. That same afternoon, she makes another move on Dongtae and invites him to share her umbrella in the walk home, going to the point of offering to accompany him to his home and cooking dinner for the two. She eventually tells him that she considers the guild a Utopia. Mio then receives a Golden Die quest from X asking her to "spend a good amount of time with Dongtae in his house". Before she has time to pursue that quest, though, X starts a new mass quest in which all B rankers are pit against each other in a fight. Contrarily to Dongtae and Taebin, she receives the quest, but lags behind to discuss Dice-related matters with the other two. When Dongtae rushes to rescue Eunjoo, she is again left behind to ponder the futility of her efforts. Mio runs away and starts her own "guild" of a bunch of dicers she found that respect her and are loyal to her. Despite the fact that Dongtae hurt her feelings, she still tries to protect him. She even creates a battle tournament to distract the dicers, to save Dongtae. Her plan is revealed and other dicers turn on her. Mooyoung found her in all the chaos and killed her. Dongtae rewound time to save. After several tries, Mio finally survives but is left without dice. She loses her Clairvoyance die to Mooyoung. Later on, she is turned into dice by failing to meet X's D-Day cutline. It is unknown if she can be revived but X has stated that being turned into dice is different from being killed since the person is technically still alive as dice. Let me explain “Dice” <Oka Ruto a Human Female Age 18 currently wearing heavy gothic attire, she wields the power of dice, let me explain dice quicky.. Ordinary Dice These are the most abundant Dice and the ones X gives first. They are originally blue and they are the only ones that grant their user Dicer-ship, which is irreversible: once one becomes a Dicer, there is no way to go back to being a normal human. One of the implications is that a Dicer is much like a game character and their health and general attributes are become quantified as stats (e.g. Health Points and skill levels). To become a Dicer, and to use ordinary Dice in general, one has to drop or roll them, purposely or by accident, onto a flat, inanimate surface. If another person catches a tossed Dice, or if one simply lays it on a surface without dropping, they remain inactivated and their ownership can be transferred as that of any other thing. Once they are activated, they become red in color and the number they show is registered by X's control system as the number of Dice and spots/pips on that rolled dice awarded to the caster. If the caster is only a regular person, at that moment they become a Dicer and receive a congratulations message from X. From that point on, and outside the PVP stage, ownership of the Dice awarded cannot be transferred: the Dice has been activated, but not yet synchronized. Synchronization is the process whereby a Dicer instructs X to use Dice on themselves, which the spots, or pips that has been rolled by a dice can be used to change either with that whole dice, or the number of spots/pips. Ordinary Dice can change human attributes until they far exceed natural ranges, namely: Physical appearance: Everything, from height and weight to hair, eye and skin color, can be changed at will. Synchronization of Dice can grow hair, remove freckles, grow muscle, change the shape of facial features and the metabolic rate, to the point that the person may be completely unrecognizable relative to their previous looks, as in the case of Taebin. Health: Dice synchronization has been used to correct vision defects, heal injuries caused by overexertion and remove fatigue. Taebin, Mio and Dongtae are examples. Physical performance: People can become stronger, faster, more agile, less susceptible to injury and increase their stamina. These attributes can be pushed far beyond human limits, but in the case of Agility and Strength, there are physiological constraints and Dicers who break the security thresholds (X always forewarns them when they are about to do so)[2] can suffer significant, painful, even disabling damage in their bodies. These effects - enhancement of skill and damage - are more pronounced when Dicers select specific parts of their bodies to be enhanced: this effect is called amplification and is a way to increase power more quickly with fewer Dice, as the smaller the part of the body, the greater the enhancement from the same amount of Dice. Examples of that are Bowl-hair and, in tragic fashion, Byungchul. Intellectual performance: Dicers can use Dice to improve their intelligence, memory and analytical power. Almost all students have done it to improve their academic performance, and Samsusaeng provides a dramatic example. Others: although there are no examples so far, it has been mentioned that less tangible attributes like charisma and luck can be enhanced by Dice. Synchronized Dice become white and are just like regular playing dice. It's not known whether they can still serve the purpose of sensing their surroundings for X, or whether they are still indestructible.: A-Rank Dice: These are provided much more sparingly than ordinary Dice and the Quests that award them are much more difficult. They are gold-coloured and have a question mark on each face when awarded; when cast, they become crimson red and the face that ends up shows the skill symbol. From that point on, their ownership cannot be transferred outside of the PVP stage. A-Rank Dice confer superhuman skills to their owners, who become A-Rankers and thus can compete for the S-Rank Dice (see below). There are six skills, one for each face on a Dice, namely: Clairvoyance This skill allows the user to read the properties of inanimate objects and the basic physical and interest profiles of people.[3] It is the only thing that can distinguish a Dicer from a non-Dicer, and it also reveals Dicers' skills to the user. All of this can be done passively and at no cost of Dice, but more details can be retrieved if the user decides to use Dice on the skill.[3] It can also detect hidden Dice in the area, and even see through opaque objects. It cannot reveal information X wants to conceal, like team membership in the War Quest. Cloaking It makes the user transparent, rendering them invisible to others.[3] This skill lasts five minutes per pip [4] and applies to things the user is holding at the moment of activation (including, of course, one's own clothes),[5] as well as to things ingested afterwards. It transcends the laws of nature and thus blindness is not a problem. When it is lifted, though, the user must wait a while before activating it again. Levitation Adjusts gravity on oneself, allowing the user to levitate and fly through the air.[3] Weight and height don't seem to be issues: the cost of the skill is measured in time of flight, at 1 pip per minute.[4] Psychokinesis A kinetic power that allows the user to move objects at will,[3] solids and liquids at least, also for example by moving and attacking with the earth in the form of pillars. Its cost in Dice has not been specified. Time Pause Widely considered the strongest skill, it can stop time of everything within an unspecified, large radius, except for the caster, at a cost of 1 pip per 10 seconds. The user can release paused people and objects by touching them, which can also be used to exclude someone from its effects if done while Time Pause is activated. People released by the user can release other people and objects. Other Time Pausers, even those who are only temporarily so from using Store items (see below) are also immune to its effects. Teleportation This skill enables the user to move instantly to a specified location, at a cost of 1 pip per 10 metres travelled. Current users are Dawn, Taebin and Mooyoung with Seyoon and Samsusaeng possessing the skill prior to death and recently Dongtae. The PVP Stage PVP stands for "player versus player" and is a special period determined by X during which normal quests stop being issued and the rules of the game change so that the only way to obtain Dice is by extracting them from another Dicer through physical violence. As said before, outside of the PVP stage, Dice that have been activated or synchronised cannot change ownership: even if the owner gives a red Die to another person, the recipient cannot use the Dice on themselves. However, during the PVP Stage this changes: if a Dicer engages another in battle and delivers sufficient harm to their opponent, from a certain point the Dice the opponent has accumulated begin to fall off their bodies, emerging red but reverting back to blue and becoming free for the picking. Accordingly, the enhancements that the victim achieved are undone in the process, in reverse order as they were gained. A-Rank Dice behave a little differently. While they can be harvested via a PVP battle, they always come out last before the Soul Die and they don't deactivate: if the person who picks them up is already a Dicer, they cannot roll it again and obtain a different skill; rather, they automatically receive the skill the original owner had; this happened to Mooyoung on harvesting Gilma's Die. If the person is normal, merely picking them doesn't turn them into a Dicer; this is Eunjoo's current status. If a non-Dicer rolls them along with ordinary Dice as in Teacher Kim's case, by becoming a Dicer they automatically receive the skill. During the PVP Stage, losing all of one's Dice is lethal: when the Soul Die falls, the person expires. If the person is an A-Ranker, it is possible to beat them within an inch of dying and harvest the A-Rank Die without actually killing them, although this is rare and the only known survivor of an A-Rank Die harvest is Dawn. The decision to initiate the PVP Stage is X's and seems arbitrary. In the previous iteration of the game whereby Taebin became a Dicer, X only waited for six A-Rankers to appear from among the seven existing ones to do it; but in Dongtae's iteration, X waited for there to be 16 A-Rankers, one for each piece of a chess army. The PVP Stage ends when a Dicer collects all six skills and earns the right to challenge X. If they are defeated, as in Mooyoung's previous attempt, they lose all skills except their original one and normal quests start being issued again. Battle Mode This, as the name implies, is a combat mode within the PVP Stage. It is an array of items and derivative skills that enable Dicers to increase their fighting capabilities. There are two forms of Battle Mode: Shop and Strengthen. Shop There is a store in the Dice system. In Taebin's iteration of the game, it was open even before the PVP Stage, but in Dongtae's it was opened afterwards. The current items from the store are known: Store Item Uses Cost Regular potion Recovers 30 HP 1 Die Luxury potion Recovers 1/2 of user's HP 3 Dice Physical buff Temporarily increases physical strength. 2 Dice Mental buff Temporarily increases mental processing. 2 Dice Peace Temporarily designates an area as a PVP-free zone. 4 Dice Defence barrier Temporarily creates a barrier surrounding an area to insulate it from outside forces. The barrier manifests as a pink translucent cube surrounding the target area. Sound can penetrate but not leave it. It is impervious to physical forces and is quite long-lived. It doesn't cover the ground. 4 Dice A-Ranker roulette Allows one temporarily to use a random A-Ranker skill. 5 Dice Stalking Allows one to find a Dicer's location at a given time within a certain radius, however it's unclear whether this includes Cloakers. ? Resurrection Restores a Dicer from a disabled state (e.g. unconscious). ? Dice bomb Attack-exclusive item during the War Quest. In a radius of five metres from the caster, it deals radial, explosive damage that spares the caster alone. 2 Dice Air bomb Similar to Dice bomb, but explodes in contact with a given air pressure. 2 Dice Stun bomb A combination of a stun grenade and flare bomb, causes no damage but emits a bright light and an intense sound on explosion. 2 Dice Random machine It is like a capsule toy game as it gives the user a random special item. It is the only known way to obtain an Enchant die and is located at the bottom of the shop. 4 Dice Potions can be used to recover health however neither potion can recover lethal damage. Buffs are used to temporarily enhance a user's physical and/or mental abilities. They can also be used to enhance skill effects: the Physical Buff allowed Dongtae to overclock his Agility to become lightning-fast, and Jihae used the Mental Buff to investigate X. Strengthen The other Battle Mode form is exclusive to A-Rankers. It consists of a mechanism whereby Dice can be spent - the more, the higher the chances of success are - to generate a derivative of one's A-Rank Skill. According to X's explanation, when an A-Ranker tries to Strengthen, X activates a pseudo-random algorithm that combines the amount of Dice spent, the A-Rank Skill and a third factor to try to generate a novel skill that is unique to that Dicer. The chances of success per round of Strengthening are intrinsically low and many attempts may end in failure, i.e. nothing happens. The odds can be improved, although not to the point of becoming 100%, by using the Enchant Die. Using more Dice can result in a superior skill being generated. The third factor is described as the A-Ranker's "nature", which seems to correspond to their classification in X's chess (for example, Dongtae is a Pawn and Taebin, a Bishop). The influence of that nature is not described in detail. Strengthening is equivalent to expanding a skill tree in a game. Derivative skills are implied to have several levels, although so far only level two skills have been shown. Derivative skills normally consume more Dice than the root skills to be used. Known skills obtained from Strengthening are: [Unspecified Skills] * Energy Drain : Mooyoung (With Taebin body)'s skill. It's not been specified which A-rank skill that it's strengthened from. It can take another's dice without using physical damage. * [???-(Volume Mixer)] : Mio's skill. It's strengthened from the Clairvoyance skill. It's not been specified which level it be. It can amplify the range of hearing of the user
